Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

You have the right to record ICE.
You have the right to film any operation happening in public as long as you do not interfere or impede it.
Your camera is proof, but keep a safe distance. KEEP RECORDING.
